freebsd-ports/lang/gcc43/pkg-descr

GCC, the GNU Compiler Collection includes C, C++, Java and Fortran.

This port installs the various front ends as gcc43, g++43, gcj43,
gfortran43 and so forth into the ${PREFIX}/bin directory.

(Building the Java frontend and the associated libgcj library will
consume more than 512MB of main memory.  Set WITHOUT_JAVA=yes in 
the environment when building this port to avoid that.)

Adjust the names of the individual frontends to GCC 4.0. PR: 73581 2004-11-09 22:29:42 +00:00			`GCC, the GNU Compiler Collection includes C, C++, Java and Fortran.`
This is a new port for egcs, which probably stands for something like "enhanced GNU compiler suite." It contains updated versions of gcc, g++, and g77 with many bugfixes and some new optimizations. The C++ compiler in particular is vastly improved over gcc-2.7.2.1. 1998-01-10 21:40:10 +00:00
And here we go, introducing the lang/gcc43 port in form of the 20061104 snapshot of GCC 4.3.0; repocopied over from lang/gcc42. Sadly we now have an unconditional dependency on math/libgmp4 and math/mpfr. On the positive side this allows us to always build the Fortran frontend.

Document the large memory requirements when building with Java support. Discussed with: alepulver 2007-03-31 14:41:28 +00:00			`(Building the Java frontend and the associated libgcj library will`

GCC 2.95 and later aren't called egcs (any longer). Also update description and web address. Approved by: obrien (maintainer+mentor) 2002-04-17 07:17:04 +00:00			`WWW: http://gcc.gnu.org/`
